4 Everything over IP and IP over everything

5 Market Reaction C&W has undergone a radical trans formation and we believe it is better pos itioned to deliver than ever before. Credit Suisse First Boston, Aug 00 C&W is res tructured and one of the few fully funded E uropean telecom operators and is s et to compete a 's ingle AS number', global IP network by the end of 2001, enabling the s tronges t quality of IP services." Morgan S tanley, Aug 00 The stage is set for the greatest transformation story in E uropean telecoms. T hese days nobody has any doubts about what Cable & Wireles s is for."

16 Peering Strategy Use Groups of Routes Community strings can be announced selectively Easy to implement Vendor independent Provide value for value Similar geographical coverage Similar position in the marketplace Similar mutual benefit

17 Paradigm Change To Peer Or Not To Peer turns into: - Peer with whom? - Peer at which locations? - Peer with which routes? Peering can, once again, be a mutually beneficial relationship of equals

18 Reality Check: Cable & Wireless European Networks

19 Global IP Node Rollout 2000/01 84 new network nodes 200 European POPs 18 Web hosting centers with over 1,000,000 sq.ft.

23 Peering Policies

24 C&W US Peering Policy Highlights of Requirements Redundant US national OC-48c backbone Consistent route announcements Nodes in 9 geographic areas Do not announce third party routes Have presence at 4 NAPs of at least DS-3 Minimum 20 Mbps average traffic 24x7 NOC Traffic imbalance 2 : 1 or less Full CIDR routes, BGP-4, aggregate, no default Register routes & policy with IRR Must nor receive this peers route announcements from third party KWWSZZZFZFRPXVSHHULQJ
